Added Vectorworks Icon

Alexa rank: 156,287

Checklist

• I updated the JSON data in _data/simple-icons.json
• I optimized the icon with SVGO or SVGOMG
• The SVG viewbox is 0 0 24 24

Description

• Chose the hex value based on company's main brand color. Vectorworks updates actual application icon yearly with release of new software.
• Grabbed the svg from company website's SVG.
• I opened a new request because the branch I had previously started was lost. I checked the vectorworks website to see if they had perhaps updated their SVG, but unfortunately it still had extra nodes as well as unnecessary handles.
• I've gone in with Inkscape and replaced the exterior circle with new circle paths to clean up geometry. I also went and straightened up some of the handles of the 'V' that were pointed out by @runxel and deleted the additional nodes of the upper-left interior corner.

Thanks for your work on this @sjstark!

It looks like there's a fair difference on the right hand side of the circles on your version compared to the source icon.

And if you compare this PR to the footer icon there are different inconsistencies there. The circles look more precise on the footer one - so I'd be inclined to use that as the reference as opposed to the header.

Any chance you could take another look at this one? I know the optimizer can sometimes mess up the path for circles, so compare it in SVGOMG against your original exported path, to see if it's kept the shape.

Hi @sjstark, are you still wanting to look into the issue mentioned in #4764 (review)? If not, another member of the community may be able to help out 👌🏻

Good find on the footer logo @adamrusted , I've updated it using that as well as used the SVGOMG rather than the CLI to optimize. I believe all should be in order now, but have clearly been mistaken before 😅

Again, even with the better quality icon, some corners of the 'v' had to be straightened out.

So your icon is now a lot cleaner than the official icon @sjstark 😅
While I'm happy with this icon, given the small differences (see image below, your PR in red) I'll ask that another @simple-icons/maintainers takes a look at this before we merge.

@adamrusted, I wasn't quite sure the best practice you guys use in this scenario. I think it's clear that their logo isn't intended to have the hard corners (if you look at the inner-right corner of the top left, the original was quite messed up)

I believe when I "corrected" these, I just straightened out the handles (made them inline with the straight edges) and it created the more uniform curves. If desired, I can revert it back, but that's when the corners had odd bumps that aren't noticeable until it's in larger scale.

Yeah - the corners of the V are quite messy in the original - I think we just need another @simple-icons/maintainers sign-off on this due to the fact you've done a much better job than VectorWorks did themselves 😅

LGTM 💯
